更改链接的CSS文件以删除特定HTML标记的样式

Question

I've got a CSS file which provides some styles, but one of them really sucks (the <code> tag styling). I'd like to eliminate it, possibly through JavaScript. Is there a quick way to do this?

Edit: These elements don't need styling, and I don't need to replace the existing styling, I just need to get rid of it.

Answer 1

You can make a more specific CSS declaration for <code> . Mileage may vary, depending on your mark-up.

body code {
 ... your styling ...
}

Answer 2

I ended up just altering the stylesheet and hosting a copy. Not ideal, but functional.
